Hermitian self-dual codes over F-22m + uF(22m)

초록/요약

We present a method for construction of Hermitian self-dual codes over F-22m + uF(22m) from Hermitian self-dual codes over F-22m via a Gray map we define, where m is a positive integer. For constructing self-dual codes over F-2 + UF2 with an automorphism of odd order using the decomposition theory, it is necessary to find Hermitian self-dual codes over F-22m + uF(22m) for some appropriate positive integer m. Using the Gray map, we show how to check the equivalence of codes over F-22m + uF(22m) from the information on the equivalence of codes over F-22m. We thus classify all Hermitian self-dual codes over F-22 + uF(22) of lengths up to 8. Using these codes, we complete the classification of the Lee-extremal self-dual codes over F-2 + uF(2) of lengths 21 and 22 with a nontrivial automorphism of odd order; these were open cases in the authors' previous work [10].
